This volume is affectionately dedicated



Foreword In presenting the 1920 Rollamo for your approval the Board assures you that it has done all in its power to make the book an interesting one from the standpoint of a student or faculty member of the Missouri School of Mines. We have attempted to depict only the most salient incidents of student life as they occurred in the school year of 1919 and 1920, and could not hope to cover all of them, in fact, we have probably omitted many and overlooked more. The book as a whole covers the more pleasant happenings and ignores the fact, temporarily, of the more unpleasant ones. If this volume will even recall only a few pleasant remembrances of your sojourn at M. S. M. the Board will consider itself amply repaid for all the time and energy spent in preparing it.

Senior Class Review Like all other classes we too have a history and of course our history coincides with that of nearly all other Seniors classes. Most of our class entered school in the fall of 1916, but due to various reasons we now have members from the classes of '17, '18 and '19, so that we cannot be forgotten like the ordinary class. As freshmen we were only a little bit better than the usual first year class. Rated little and received only a part of that. We had numerous troubles but found that these increased with the years fol lowing. 路In ath letics we have done more than our share. Such football men as Bruce, Hoppo:k, Brazill, Kroenlien, Behn, Cairns, Cunnungham, Petach, Slover, Taggart and Uthoff will long be remembered. In basket ball we have been represented by Swayze, Bohn, and Wright and in t rack by Brazill, Murphy,Bohn,and Taggert. Stubbs is readily recognized as the golf champion and Uthoff holds a similiar title in tennis.

K. M. WRIGHT President of Senior Class As students equally represented in both extremes, but as a class ranking very high. Men of the class of 1920 have always been leaders in any form of school activities. We realize that the school has done its part and now we are ready to step out and show an appreciation of the careful preparation of an Alma Mater. Strange is the feeling, that each Senior passes at this time of year -neither sad not glad. And though as freshmen we envied those superior four year men we now realize that after all it has been a great life. Aching hearts and mourning creditors may miss us for a while but not as we will miss those pleasant four year$. And though we may have a few failings, we feel ourselves equal to the task before us, so we ask you to forget out faults and remember us for our good qualities-the Class of 1920. CLASS OFFICERS

Mining Engineering. Kappa Sigma, Theta Tau, A. I. M. &M.E. Often called "Toodles" but better known as "Squash". Looks so innocent that we haven't the heart to say anything about him . Lost his voice during the Senior trip in Chicago and "that ain't all".

EARL

E.

ASHLOCK

Civil Engineering. Prospector, Tau Beta Pi, Theta Tau, C. E. Society, Rollamo '18. A really hard worker- will even volunteer to do things that others dodge. We wonder what kind of s heart is hidden beneath such a composed exterior-or is there a heart at all.

35


MARION

s. BADOLLET

Junior Class Review When school opened August 30, 1919, very few members of the class of '21 were to be found in or about Rolla. During the following two weeks, however, the class roll swelled until practically every man who started out with the class as a freshman was either present or accounted for. Besides these, the Junior class included many men of previous classes who returned to . M. S. M. after giving their best in behalf of Democracy. Soon after, the class organization preparations were started for the greatest and most memorable "St. Pats." in the history of M. S. M. Delegates were sent to the first National Convention of Engineering Schools at Columbia, Mo. in order to cooperate with other schools for the purpose of Nationalizing the St. Patrick Celebration. "Billie" the biggest theatrical success which was ever staged in Parker Hall, was the next step in the preparations. St. Pats. was celebrated on March 1oth and it is our hope that it will long be remembered by all those present as the most gorgeous and magnificent celebration in the history of M. S. M. In athletics the class of '21 was well represented, White, Wilson, Stevens and Place (captain elect) were on the football team and Dorris and Rohloffe represented the class in Basket Ball. In all other school activities, the class as a whole and individually has always taken a leading part. Everything that was for the benefit of M. S. M. as a better and greater institution was ardently undertaken by every member of the class, no matter how arduous the task was. When we return next year, we shall hope to find the Class of '21 over strong and full of that old M. S. M. pep which has always been dominant since the days when we were Frosh. Those who return will return eager to make the last year in the history of the school even greater than the three years just completed. OFFICERS President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer

Sophomore Class Revi ew During the first days of Septemb er we came to Rolla. The reception we received from the upper classmen was just the opposite from what we expected. The faculty had abolished hazing and the class fight was called off by common consent. But we foun.sl out that we were to pay for the courtesy of the upper classmen. We hadn't been in school long before the government inaugura ted the S. A. T. C. and we all remembe r the first day by the flag pole where you could win or lose any amount from a penny on upward in any way you chose. Of the first men picked for Officers Training Camp from the S. A. T. C. were represen ted by two. But these two missed out on that delightful fifteen minutes between "call to quarters " and "taps" which was indeed very lively for the class of 'zz, and brought out some good talent in the form of singing, dancing, etc. In the football game, we easily defeated the Sophomores. Our class has always been well represen ted in the various varsity teams. This year the story was entirely different. Not a few of our men dropped out of school in J anuary and the following Septemb er, yet when we took count we numbered over seventy. Several new men and all ex-service men returned to swell ou r ranks, and will you ever forget the morning of Sept. 9, 1919, as with rope in hand you entered that immorta l fou rteen minute battle when was such a decided victory fo r us although the odds were against us. And will you ever forget that famous street fight precedin g the class fight in which paddles and other such available weapons were used with no discretio n whatsoev er, much to the soreness of many who participa ted, and after this victory the parade of the '' Frosh'' thru town to Frisco Pond, where they went thru a hundred yard gauntlet in the pond. This was certainly a just repayme nt for the many nights of our Freshma n year spent in barracks , when we furnished the smiles. Thus we close, hoping that our spirit will continue heretofo re and our achievements do credit to this spirit and these recollections of the days spent atM. S.M. be a solace after a useful career in our chosen professions. CLASS OFFICE RS

Freshman Review

ZoLLER

A few of our men who were not killed in the rush succeeded in enrolling at good old M. S. M. as the Class of '23. By no means was this gift of good judgment limited to the sixty-eight Missourians of our class; for we have represented in our number forty-three from fifteen other states. Besides these we boast of four Peruvians and one Norwegian, making a grand total of one hundred sixteen, which gives us the distinction of being the largest class that has yet enrolled at the School of Mines. . Upon being formally ushered into M. S. M., we were of course, subjected to a 路 close and careful scrutiny by the upperclassmen. Realizing from the first our positions as Freshmen, we have observed all decrees of the upper classes with a spirit and desire to keep alive the old-time customs and traditions of the school. The faculty's views and definition of the term "hazing" no doubt saved us路- and the Sophomores too- from feeling more of the glowing effects of the pine paddle; but we do not thank the faculty for thus coming to our "rescue", for we believed then, as we do now, that a good initiation in the customs of the sshool and the strict observance of the school's traditions are essential parts of a college education. Very few people had the pleasure of reading the TAKE HEED proclamation issued by the Sophomores this year. Our G-2 was on the job; and, during the early morning hours , Freshman posters were pasted over the So ph's proclamation, and so the chagrined '22 men had to go to the trouble and expense of getting out another edition. We encountered the Sophomores in the usual class fight, and in this we found 82


some real sport. The night precedin g the fight was spent at the Fair Grounds where we slept on the ground beneath a smiling autumn moon. The next morning , under the comman d of Updike, we marched in a column of squads up Pine street, thence to the campus in front of the Chemica l building where we met the Sophs in the schedule d mortal combat. The battle raged fiercely; and for about ten minutes the "fortune s of war" were decidedly with us. However , a sudden turn of the tide came; and, after fourteen minutes of rough and tumble, the Sophomo res were declared victors. Daubed with green paint, and appropri ately placarde d, we were marched to Jackling Field where we put on the customa ry circus. That night we were the guests of the Sophomo res at a smoker given in the gymnasi um, and on October 15, we gave a return smoker. No green caps were here for us to don on Green Cap Day, and so from September 8, until October 24, when they finally arrived, we braved the elements with what protectio n nature had provided for our humble heads. The caps were worn from October 24, until Decembe r 6, when, by order of the Student Council, they were discarde d.

The Missouri Miner When the staff first organized in the early part of last September it was found that besides those of the board of the preceding year there wer~ five men of previous boards back in school; G. E. Ebmeyer, T. P. F. \Yalsh, 0. Goldsmith, M. L. Terry, and Wayman Crow. Of these men, the first three became actively connected with the board. At the opening of the year, the leadership was in the hands of R. I . Stubbs, but due to pressing school work he was unable to keep the position after the fi rst of January. Ebmeyer, one of ou r former editors, was elected for the second semester, but, graduating in February, he turned the reins over to G . F . Rackett, whose good work during the ptrevious two years had earned him the position of "Chief". Joe Wilson, our cartoonist, furnished the illustrations for our big issues and from time to time was able to get a ca rtoon in one of the regular issues. Booker, with Goldsmith and Netzeband, ran the business end of the staff with the exactness of an efficiency engineer and is responsible for our good financia l standing. Homer Kerr convinced the local and foreign concerns of the good business opportunities found by advertising in our columns. Luckfield, with the help of Huffman and Burke, saw that the Miners were in the postoffice every week on time. The assistant editors and the class reporters we re eve r on the alert for news and little escaped them. Even though the Miner has been under several leaders the record for the past year has been a satisfactory one. Our Christmas edition of sixteen pages was all and more than we had hoped for. Our St. Pat's issue, "The" iss ue of the year, maintained the standard of previous years and we feel certain that it compa red favorably with any like publication from any technical school. For the first time in the history of the paper, the board undertook to give dances in J ackling Gymnasium periodically. The dances proved to be a success, both from the standpoint of our patrons and from that of the Missouri M iner. The Hallowe'en Dance was one of the best ever held in the school. We fee l sure that when future boards announce a Miner dance they will not have to speculate on its success路-that will be assured. The staff this year attempted to give to the student body, the facu lty, and the alumni an unprejudiced reflection of school life and school opinions. We have tried to reflect in every respect the feelings of the college regarding those happenings which came to our notice. Though at times the paper has been censored severely by some in the student body, we feel that for the most part the side taken by the Miner was the side upheld by the majority in school.

The Civil Engineer Society The Civil Engineers at M. S. M. realized that they were not as well known as they should be; so to change this condition they decided to form an active society to advance things of interest to them at school. Accordingly , the senior and junior civil engineering students conferred with the faculty of their department and arrangemen ts were made to hold the first meeting October I, 1919 at the Baltimore Hotel in the form of a banquet. At this meeting officers were elected and arrangemen ts made for the years program. During the year regular meetings were held once a month, and many interesting talks were given by members and guests, a list of which is as follows: The Civil Engineering Students Future. . . Prof. E. G. Harris Engineering Arrangemen ts for the Battle of St. Mihiel. Prof. E. S. McCandliss Railroad Economics. . . Prof. H. H. Armsby of Engineers. Association American The Mr. C. P. Calvert The Manufactur er of Cement. Mr. Frank R. Loveridge Orientation of the Plane Table. Mr. C. F. Bardsley The Italian Method of Resection. Mr. K. W. Heimberger One meeting that will never be forgotten was the one at the home of Karl Heimberger , where his mother a nd sister served such a splendid turkey supper.

The Student Council The student council is an organization comp osed of three semors and two Juniors elected by the Student body for a period of one year. The purpose of the Council is to bring the faculty and the student b:Jdy into closer touch with each other in order that each might benefit from the view-p:Jint and understanding of the other. Very often, misunderstanding is the root of any difficulty that might arise between any two separately acting bodies rather than that of transgression. This is particularly true of the relation that exists frequently between the faculty and the student body. It is with the id ea of eliminating this factor of misunderstanding that the Student Council confer with faculty CJmmittees from time to time and investigate any unjust acts either on the part of the student or the faculty. The Student Council also has the right and it is part of their duty to bring before the faculty for correction any unjust decision rendered by the faculty, or by a member of the faculty acting individually, against the student body or against any member of the Student body. Aside from these relations the Student Council acts for the furtherance of any activity that may be of value to the student body. The members of the Council for the year 1919-1920 were, Marston, Stoner Stubbs, Ashlock, and Brazill from the Senior class and Norviile and Booker from the Junior class. Ashlock and Brazill were elected at the beginning of the winte r term to take the places of Marston and Stoner who graduated in December. Several important problems have been brought before the Council this year and these men have been very proficient in performing the wor~ that has been set before them. The power of such an organization increases with the precedents that are established from year to year and the manner in which th ey have been handled the task they have had before them is evidenced by the supp::>rt they have received from the entire student body.



St. Pat's. Convention On December 5 and 6 three delegates from the Missouri School of Mines attended a convention held at Columbia, Mo. The object of this convention was to make St. Patricks celdiration a national custom in engineering schools and also to unite the schools into a consolidated national organization which would be a national society for undergraduate and in all probability for graduate engineers. These three delegates were E. K . Schuman, Meryl McCarthy, and J.P. Colbert and with them were delegates from eleven engineering schools in the Mississippi Valley . . The schools represented were: Missouri U., M. S. M., Washington U., Nebraska U., Iowa State, St. Louis ., Iowa U., Tennessee U., Oklahoma A and M., Arkansas U., and Mississippi U. The convention opened on Thursday morning by an address from E. J. Me ext to the history Caustand, Dean' of the Engineering school at Missouri U. of the St. Pats. at the different schools together with the form of celebration was given by each school in chronological order. Mr. Schuman recounted the history and form of celebration atM. S.M. and this so far surpassed that of other schools that there was no comparison. The constitutional committee on which Mr. Schuman and Mr. McCarthy served then drew up a national constitution which after a few changes was accepted by the convention. The name of the national organization a set forth in the constitution is the "Guard of St. Patrick". All under graduate students in an engineering school are termed "Guards" of St. Patrick and each year during the celebration all seniors in engineering are dubbed "Knights of St. Patricks". Any woman who is a senior in engineering shall be dubbed a "Lady of St. Patrick" and any Professor prominent in engineering may be dubbed "Honorary Knight of St. Patrick" . The pin committee on which Mr. Colbert served submitted three designs for a national pin to be worn by all duly dubbed "Knights", "Honorary Knights", and "Ladies". The pin which was accepted is a small green shamrock with a slide rule across the leaves, on this rule is the word 1 ' ENGI EERS" in gold block letters and all those who were du ly knighted this year were given a pin. The pin committee also recommended that the Queens pin used at M. S. M. be adopted, and this was done immediately. The headquarters of this organization shall be at Columbus, 1o. The national secretary shall be chosen from Missouri U., the President from any chool, and the Vice-President from the school where the next convention is to be held. At this convention the Vice-President was chosen from Ames. While in Columbia these delegates were royally entertained, the entertainment consisting of a number of receptions, auto rides over the city, and the "St. Pats Nationalization Ball" in a beautifully decorated Hall where a large "Miner" banner showed prominently among the other decorations.

Football Review A comparison of the total score compiled against us during the season is a fair means of determining whether or not the season was a success. The season opened with plenty of old and new material, and prospects for a winning team never looked better. But for some reason fate decreed that about one man a day shou ld be injured. This, however, did not prevent us from winning the first two games. Then an atmosphere which was produced by the student body crept over the gridiron and instilled a spirit into the squad which had never before been known atM. S. M. This spirit is said to have come as a result from several "rotten" games that had been played. The hardest fought game of the season was the Washington game. The team played such a superior brand of foot-ball that it was absolutely necessary for Washington to use their "one man team "-Conzleman that day or the score wou ld have been somewhat different. The Thanksgiving Day game with Drury was another good game and altho we lost by one touchdown, it could clearly be seen that it really was the Miner's game, and just a little of our old "hard luck" made us miss this one. The season was a successful one from every standpoint, notwithstanding the lowness of the percentage column. With most of the team back next year we should take the Conference title without much trouble.

CAPTAIN HoPPOCK,

Fullback

Hop's brilliant leadership pulled the Miners thru many close places on the G:ridirion this. year.. He won his second letter and hts sure tackhng wdl be greatly missed. Hop played a great game all the season.

CAPT.-ELECT PLACE,

'21

Tackle

Juice won his first letter in 1917. He was back again this year stronger than ever, and never lost a minute in any game. Thru his efforts and ability he won a place on one of the All Missouri Conference teams. As a leader for the 1920 team he can not be equaled.

160


BRAZILL,

'20

Halfback

Micky received his fourth letter this year. He was the greatest ground gainer M. S. M. has seen for many years, and when he was out of the game on account of injuries the team suffered its greatest losses. Micky is fast and hard to stop, and made a place for himself on the first Missouri Conference team.

Bullet was captain of the 1917 team, and made his fourth letter this year. His passing the ball can not be equalled, and that is'nt all, he talked all the time and could tell we were going to take the ball, and he shifted the line to meet the play. Nothing ever came thru Bruce.

CAIRNS,

Quarter

This was Buddy's third year among the letter men, and his ability in steering a team down the field was a conspicuous feature of every game.

•

STEVENS,

'21

End

Steve won his second letter this year. As an end he was hard to beat, and was the most player on the team. His tackling and breaking of interference won him a place on one of the All Missouri Conference teams. He also played all of every game this year, and we hope to see him back next year with the same old fight.

'zo Guard George could always be relied upon to do more than his part of breaking a hole thru his side of the line. He won his second letter this year, and will be greatly missed next season. KROENLEIN,

'zr End Mort has played two years, making a letter each yea r and has one more year to go. He was the lightest man on the team, but this did not stop him from smashing interference.

BusER,

'23

Guard

This was Booser's first year with us, and only a freshmen, yet he was able to show up many of the letter men who were back in uniform this year. With this year's experience and three seasons to go he is the making of good material for a real steam roller.

BoLT,

Tackle

From Illinois and never heard of until this year but we saw what he was made of and hope he will continue the good work next fall; which will mean another letter to his credit.

MANN, '21 Fullback Monk plunging thru the line won him a letter this year. He was a good man and we regretted to lose him at the end of the semester.

Halfback Fred's speed in circling the ends was what made him conspicuous on the field this year, as well as the first season he played with the Miners.

Basket Ball Review---1920 The season which opened with the Warrensburg game and promise? to end so disastrously for the Miners, did not wind up as badly as we feared 1t would. We won three conference games and right at the tail end of the ~eason when we were "down on our luck", so to speak, we beat each of our old nvals, Drury and Springfield Iormal, out of a hard fought game. Whether our failure to make a better showing was due to the old Miner Jinx or was somebody's fault we are not prepared to say; but we do know that every man on the squad worked har_d and did his best to make his team a winner, and in giving credit where credit is due we would say that whatever success was ours can be credited to the men who were faithful workers on the floor and off and who repeatedly went down to defeat and came up smiling--just as good sports as ever and with enough and to spare of the old Miner fight left in them.

THE LETTER MEN Captain Bohn, Forward: Eddie, with "Kenny" and "Sig", his last years running mates, was the backbone of the team. Forward was a new position to Eddie but he filled it well enough and at the end of the season when he got back in his old notch at the other end of the floor, we saw some guarding that is seldom equalled atM. S. M. Like all good athletes, he works harder when he is behind and no matter how lop-sided the score, you could always find Eddie behind his team and backing them till the last whistle blew. Besides being a good basketball captain Eddie is an "M" man in both foot-ball and track- one of the two, three-letter men in school. He has been on every team that was ever called out since he came here and right here we register an earnest plea for more athletes of the Eddie Bohn type. Wright, Forward: Kenny made his third letter this year and just as in the two previous years he played a bang-up game straight through. Sometimes it looks like he is a hard luck man when it comes to finding the basket, but he eventually gets his share of the points and can be depended upon to do it in every game. Kenny is a Senior and we are sorry to lose a man who has had such a wide range of activities, for, unlike a great many athletes, he is a student. In the words of his team-mates, he is a clean, hard-working athlete and an Honestto-Gosh sportsman. Captain-Elect Signer, Center: Sig also played a new position this year and while he is not as tall as some centers he played against, he held his own in the jumping and was our big point-getter. In a great many of the games he was by far the fastest man on the floor. This is his second year on the Miner team and if he continues to improve there will be no stopping him next year. He has an uncanny eye for the hoop, can shoot and pass from any position and with his speed and fight puts confidence and pep into the whole team. He will make an able leader for the 1921 team.

Gholoff, Guard: This scrappy defender of the Miner goal came to us last Fall with a basket-bal l reputation and has lived up to it in great style. He was out of several games on account of injuries but when he was on the floor he meant business and he tore into the play like a veteran. What he lacks in gentleness he more than makes up in sportsman ship and is a valuable asset to any team. He promises much for next season. Bulger, Guard: Johnny is another scrappy man who got his first chance on the Varsity this year. In some of the games he was handicapp ed by being put in in the lastfew minutes of play, but he showed his ability in every case and it is most certain that he has the spirit and the fighting qualities that go to make up a Miner guard. He should be a strong man next year and can be depended upon to fill the gap that will be left in our defense by the going of Captain Bohn. Harris, Forward: Jimmy, our Freshman basket-te>sser, is a fighter from start He has an eye for the basket that rivals Signer's when he is on the to finish. open court, and a little knack of scoring from a tangle when he is hemmed in by larger opponents . He is as good at defense as a regular guard and with another year's work will undoubted ly develop into one of the fastest forwards who ever wore a Miner uniform. These six men by no means deserve all the credit that must be given to our Several others worked hard and faithfully all fighting, if not winning team. season, notably Kimmel, Case and Porterfield . While these men did not make letters, they played their best on the scrub team, without which, as everyone knows, there could be n_o Varsity. Of course Wright and Captain Bohn are going to be greatly missed, but with Signer to pilot next rear's team and with Bulger, Rholoff, ~arri~, Case, Kimmel and Porterfield back tn harness, our chances for a winning Conferenc e team appear to be very good.


Golf Golf is, as yet, still in its infancy at the School of Mines, but judging from present indications and from the interest shown in the past year, that recreation bids fair to become one of the leading attractions here. The greatest obstacle encountered so far toward putting the game in its deserved prominence is the lack of proper encouragement t o the beginners. Although there have been several tournaments here, those just learning the game have felt that their efforts in any competition would be useless, and they have consequently left the field open to 'the few 路men who have played before and who are, for that reason, considerably in advance in the gentle art of swatting the pill in the desired direction. The tournaments, then, have not met with the hoped for success even though the handicaps were liberal and there was an equal chance for all who desired t o enter. It is hoped that during the summer term and the early fall there will be offered more opportunities for th e beginners to compete on equal terms, and that those who are proficient at the game will encourage the "dubs" and see to it--that interest in the game is kept alive until more of the men fall victim to the "golf-bug". Although the course is some distance from town and is not yet showing evidences of that green, billowy smoothness so characteristic of established golf courses, a great amount of pleasure may be derived from placing a good, clean shot close to the pin . A great p oint in favor of the course is found in the lack of monotony. 路 One's ball never lies the same way twice. In golf circles it might be called a sporty ourse. When the new 路nine holes are added and the club-house is built there will undoubtedly be increased activity on the links, especially if the club house contains a "19th hole". We are impatiently looking forward to the completion and perfection of our latest playground.

INTERESTIN(i THIN(jS


To the making of college annuals there is no end a~d to the striving to make them different there is no limit. It may be said however, that they fall into two kinds: those whose chief aim is the photographic reproduction of intimate scenes of college life, and those whose object is to maintain a somewhat ju st equilibriu m between the photographic and the literary. In the present book we have striven for the latter classification. As for the pictures, the staff photographer and the cartoonist have left nothing undone in the presentation of their part of the work-their merit speaks for itself. In the reading matter, or the more literary aspect of the volume, many hands have shared; and though the product may not be literary, it has been conscientiously done and we offer no excuses for its shortcomings. We claim no originality- the volume is only a record of what you as students have done during the year. And if you are not satisfied with it, you might ask yourselves if you have done all you could and if your cooperation has at all times been of the most hearty and generous nature. Perhaps a word is necessary in explanation of the increased price of the present book. A college annual must be self supporting. The Rollamo Boards of the last two years have been successfu l in this respect. But with the increased cost of everything that goes into the making of b ooks, the expenses of publish ing the


volume have increased. To meet these, an extra effort has been made by the business department to increase the income not only from advertising but also from a much larger distribution of the books among the Alumni. Their labor and success in this respect makes it possible to ask for only a very nominal advance in the subscription price of the book. 1920

We present the volume as a reflection of the events at the Missouri School of Mines during 1920 as we have seen them. Of course we have received much aid, and we desire to express our sincere thanks to all who have, consciously or unconscious ly, helped. We are however, especially indebted to Edward Kahlbaum, Registrar, for the untiring assistance he has given the business department and the editorial staff, and to Mr. G. E. Ebmeyer for his contribution s and for the continuous interest he has shown in our work since he left school.

Armistice Day Celebration Armistice Day, Nov. II, 1919, was set aside at Missouri School of Mines to celebrate the cessation of hostilities a year ago and also tocommemorate the M. S. M. heroes who died while in their country's service. As no classes were pre-arranged program could be carried out with little trouble. held on that

a

A large percentage of the old ex-service men appeared in full uniform, some wearing two or three gold 路chevrons, and many wearing wound chevrons. School was forg otten for a few hours and they were in the army again. Most of the school cadets were also in uniform when the companies assembled on J ackling Field at IO a. m. Two companies of cadets and one of ex-service men, formed the battalion of which Major Wild had charge. This battalion was marched to Parker Hall where the morning exercises were held. Singing by a selected chorus, short speeches by Dr. McRae, Capt. Ambler '17 U. S. Army, and Rev's. C. S. Hanby and Tragitt, comprised this program which was concluded at 12 m. Senator Frank Farris who was to have given an address could not be present. In the afternoon a rifle and pistol contest was held which was won in both cases by the R. 0. T. C. men. After this came the competitive drill between picked platoons of ex-service men and R. 0. T. C. cadets. Capt. H. Stevens led the R . 0. T. C. men, while ex-First Lt. "Pat" Murphy led the ex-service men. It was a walk over for the ex-service bunch who put on a snappy drill and gave the young cadets something to think over. One or two years intensive army training showed its results in the military appearance of the old timers' drill. The last formation of the day was "Retreat" and a battalion parade lead by John Scott's Rolla Band. Everybody voted the day a success with the hope of making it an annual affair at M. S. M.

182



St. Patrick's Day On Friday March 19, the true spirit of old M.S. M. burst forth again in celebration of St. Patrick's Day. Despite the weather conditions, the parade and knighting ran off as scheduled. In accord with all former events, St. Pat. and his attendants arrived in Rolla at 9:30 A. M. The Royal Car took its place at the head of the parade, followed by twelve cars carrying the members of the Senior Class. Then followed the floats with burlesques on the faculty and events around the school. Individual students were far above the ordinary and although our ever present knockers said the parade would be the same as always, the Junior Class should be commended on its additions of new and different ideas. The entire student body also certainly did their share to make this celebration better than ever before. After the parade, the knighting ceremony was held in front of Parker Hall, the mysterious magician of India producing the Blarney Stone. Fifty-six seniors, two members of the faculty and a former Miner, James A. Greggory, were knighted by the venerable old Hibernian St. Patrick-A. B. Needham. After being congratulated and kissing the blarney stone, those knighted were presented with certificates and the official Guard of St. Patrick Pins. J.P. Colbert and E. M. Guy were attendants and Vance Webster and Robert Grady acted as Pages to the Ruler of the Day. In the afterno::>n the class of '21 gave the best minstrel' that has ever been produced by students of M. S. M. Care was shown in the selection of various men for their respective parts and the selection proved to be very good. Besides the students who took part Miss Helen Baysinger and Mrs. Singleton proved most excel!ent as accompanists. The climax of the day was reached in the grand masquerade ball at J ackling Gymnasium. Long before nine o'clock the alloted space for spectators was filled and by nine o'clock wonderfully constumed dancers could no longer remain quiet to the irresistible music of William's Orchestra. Each year has found the gym 路more elaborately decorated and so it was this year. Wonderful effect was obtained by the use of subdued lights, falling on green, white, and yellow crepe paper with a large shamrock suspended above the center of the floor. When the trumpets sounded at eleven o'clock the dancing was suspended by an inconvertible Kow-Tow! from St. Pat. After taking his place on the throne 184

the former St. Pat's Queens entered: Miss Helen Baysinger '15, escorted by V. I. Keeter and W. F. Netzeband; Miss Mary McCrea '16, escorted by L. E. Lumpkin and J. C. Salmon. Following these came the 1920 Queen of St. PatrickMiss Iancey Love escorted by A.F. Delaloye and W. R. Denison. Miss Mary Johnson and :Niaster David Howerton were train bearers of the Queen. Following the crowning of the Queen came the maids of honor, Miss Martha Pillman escorted by H. A. Hollingshead, and Miss Billie Farris, escorted by H. 0. Norville. The Grand March then followed, led by the Hon. Mr. and Mrs. F. H. Harris and Professor and Mrs. L. E. Garret. After this the masks were removed and programmes made out for the dance which lasted until 4:30 A. M. The dance Saturday night was even better, the orchestra having lost none As mid-night of its pep and the crowd showing no signs of the preceding ball. approached and the final selection was played a sigh of regret swept over the entire crowd as they realized that the greatest event on ~he Miner Calender was soon to be a thing of the past.

Junior Class Play On F1 iday, February 13, at 8:15 p. m. the curtain arose on "Billie" a comedy路 in three acts presented by the Junior class for the benefit of St. Pats. which proved a great success and received much applaus~ from the time the curtain rose until th e closing embrace. Too much favorable comment ,can not be given the cast. Each and every one of them played an excellent part and not one failed to draw an undescribable applause from the audience which far outnumbered any ever seen in Parker Hall. The play clearly brought out the predicament a foot ball hero is in after he has lost his teeth and is trying to keep his fiance from knowing it. Italsoshowed the true love which exists between mothe r and daughter and brother and sister; the picture of the jealous tale bearing rival, and the superstitious and romantic life of the sa ilor. Als::> the Jun ior Class owes unlimited praise to G. F. Rackett, and H. H. Arms by for the part they took in directing and preparing the play.

Green Cap Day The night of Friday August 29 returned to M. S. M. what was thought to be an object of ancient history. It was on that night that a few of our verdent strangers, who a few days previous had bid farewell to their relatives and to the one they hated to leave behind, ventured forth upon the streets of the city of Rolla. However a few minutes after arriving on the streets they found that such things as rope, barrel staves, fountains, and the Frisco pond were not things to be talked about but things that could actually be seen. From that time until the following Thursday it was best for the freshman's health if he remained in his room after dark. Sunday, September 7, between four and six o'clock small groups of strangers could be seen hiking toward the fair grounds and about seven o'clock a fairly large group had gathered on the grounds, and had started the usual precedent of burning up the fence posts that had been replaced since the previous class had visited the place. The following morning about eight o"clock this motley crew arrived in town. Each and everyone of them kept good time to the tune of hep hep hep, and it was evident that the sophomores had taught them how to keep step. Promptly at 9 o'clock, with the sophomores on the North side of the campus and the Freshmen on the south side, Ebmeyer stepped forth and gave the signal to start. The clash showed to all those present that there was good foot ball material in both classes, and real fighting followed for 17 minutes when all the freshmen were tied. As usual a carnival was staged on Jackling Field after the fight and the freshmen went through their stunt very willingly, the most amusing being proposals to some of the B's, singing of solos, and eating molasses. In the evening the sophomores entertained with a good smoker which brought the entire school together and displayed the real old Miner pep.

The Senior Trip An unusual treat was in store for the Seniors when it was decided to have the annual trip in conjunction with the A. I. M. M. E. Convention in Chicago from Sept. 21 to 26, 1919. In accordance with prearranged plans due to Prof. Clayton's efforts, we had a special pullman leaving St. Louis over the C. & E. I. at 11:30 P.M. Sept. 21st. An all night "bridge party" was the only feature of the trip t o Chi. which was reached at 7:30A.M. Sept. 22nd. Bill Oyler '19 and Gerald Rackett acted as a reception committee and pilotted most of the boys to theY. M . C. A. hotel on So. Wabash St. Others stayed with friends and merely used the Congress Hotel stationery when writing. After a hurried breakfast we all assembled at the Convention Headquarters, Congress H otel, and signed up for the trip and events we expected to attend. All Miners signed up for the Smoke r and Banquet. " Thorny" and several other Miners took in the Loop District and finally had to admit that the buildings were slightly taller than those located in the corresponding district of R olla. Stops were made at points of interest behind swinging doe rs where chemical solutions were tested. At 11 A. M. m ost of the boys were on hand to take in the first of the lectures on "Mine Taxation" by Dr. L. C. Graton of Washington D. C. The Coal and Gas sess ion was also attended. The afternoon sessions on Coal and Gas and G eology were also well attend ed and Webb fell asleep again. In the s~ssion on geology a controversy between two State geologists enlivened matters. On account of the steel strike at Gary, Indiana, that trip was called off and most of the men visited Hammond , East ChicagJ and South Chicago smelters and chemical plants. Others tJO~c in the Chemical Show at the Coliseum or visited the Stock Y ard s路. Wednesday, Sept. 24th, was given over t 0 Symposiums on Sulfur in Coal and P yrometry. There were also sessions on Iron and Steel and Non-Ferrous Metallurgy. At 7:30 P . M. the big banquet sta rted and Prof. Clayton did not have to check over the roll for this event. The Miners were all there- fourty fou r of them- and they did ample ju stice to all of the courses. Many excellent after dinner speeches were made and we were again given the oppJrtunity of listen ing to Chas. M. Schwab, one of the big "Guns" in the steel industry . On Thursday we boa rded the R ock Island Special for LaSal le, Il li:wis. At La Salle a luncheon was given at the H otel Kaskaskia after which autos took us on the va rious side trips. Most of the men took the industrial trip, while others took the mining and geological t ri ps. Our homewa rd j urney sta rted at 5 P . M. and we arrived in Chi. at about 8:30 P . M. 192


The Friday trip to Milwaukee to visit the Allis-Chalmers plant was instrucThis is truly a wonderful institution, and the time was tive in every respect. too short to get anything but a rapid survey of the immense workings. John Morris '19 was the official guide and he did much to make the trip an enjoyable 路 one. While most of the Seniors went to Milwaukee there still were. some twenty odd who took in the coal trip to Franklin County, Illinois coal fields. This trip was under the personal direction of Mr. Carl Scholz, the foremost authority on coal mining in the U. S., and was intensely instructive from all angles. Leaving Chicago on Thursday evening over the C. & E. I. we again arrived at Benton at 7:30 A.M. Friday, where, after partaking of breakfast, we boarded a special train of locomotive and day coach bound for several of the larger coal mines of the district. The Big Ben, Orient and Valier Mines were visited; in the latter one the party took in the surface and underground workings. The large electric hoist and concrete tipple were the main features of this mine. After the inspection we were taken to Christopher, Ill. where we took the I. C. into St. Louis and the Senior trip became a thing of history.


Chemical Engineers Trip The Chemical Engineers left Rolla Sunday,April 7, for St. L::mis to make their annual inspection trip, with the exception of Millar and Badollet who had taken their private car the day before. Sunday evening was spent in acquainting the "country boys" with the city ways. Two Metallurgical plants were visited Monday, the National Lead Co. and the Granby Zinc Co. for the benefit of the Metallurgists. Tuesday the Chemists betook themselves to the Certain-teed Products Co. This plant was one of the most interesting on roofing plant in East St. Louis. the ttip. The party was the guest of the company fo r lu ncheon. I n the afternoon the men were taken by automobiles to the varnish plant. Wednesday morning the Meyer Bros. Drug Co. was visited. The boys learned some of the Barleycorn substitutes; also Howald took great delight in showing the girls his new jumpers. After such strenuous work, it was decided to take a half holiday, which was spent in different ways such as the Gayety, Grand Opera and the Bevo plant. All reports were very favorable . The Commercial acid and the National Stamping and Enameling companies were visited Thursday. Several of the boys cut the afternoon, Howald seeming to be the leader of the insurrection . Mallinckrodt Chemical Co. was taken in on Friday morning. After refreshing ourselves with "Hek" we adjourned for luncheon. The afternoon was spent at the Provident Chemical Co. Saturday morning was greatly enjoyed by several of the chemists at the utensil department of the National Stamping and Enameling Co. of Granite City. Noticing the large working girls employed, Ed. Williams said, "No working girl for mine, she's too husky". The gang路 had thinned out considerably by Saturday afternoon. However a pleasant trip on the Broadway car to the Laclede Gas Co. By-Products plant was indulged in by several of the men. The entire trip was a success in every way, being both instructive and interesting. The following men made the trip: C. A. Gettler, E. A Williams, A. M. Howald, K. K. Kershner, C. J. Millar, W. J. Finley, M. S. Badollet, and H. Taylor. Dr. Turner and Prof. Dunlap deserve much credit for their selection of the plants inspected . The following old "Miners" were found in charge at several of the plants: Rossman, Wauder, and Williams.
